Post-installation Setup
With the option card in place, your Apex may need a
few adjustments to accommodate it’s new configuration.
If you have already replaced the main unit’s cover and
reconnected the power cord, you may now need to
change your DIP switches settings to reflect the new
configuration. For example, if you add an external
floppy disk drive, you need to change switches 7 and 8
so the computer recognizes the additional drive.
You may also need to add some commands in the
configuration files on your system diskette as well.
Your MS-DOS manual will provide you with
instructions.
When you finish installing option cards and
reconfiguring the system, you should test the option if
possible. Some option cards come with their own
diagnostic test programs.
